Chapter 89 Logistics Officer (1)
Just as Cons was about to leave, the staff officer who read the promotional process to Cons suddenly appeared.
He was stunned when he saw Cons, but soon waved to Cons with a smile. After saluting each other, the staff officer handed a bag of things to Cons and said with a smile: "Just go to find you, open it."
Cons opened the bag and found four documents and dozens of gold coins inside.
The staff officer smiled and said, "Those seventy-five gold coins are the salary of your second lieutenant this month, and the remaining fifty are given to you by the marshal. From now on the fifteenth of every month, you will go to the logistics department of your troops to collect it yourself.
"This is your military proof, which contains the troops you want to serve. This is the registration certificate. This is the temporary entry and exit certificate for the imperial capital with only one-time use. There is also the orderly distribution certificate. This is based on this certificate, you can accept one orderly soldiers in the reserve department of the imperial capital."
"The reserve in the capital? Are you enough to say that the orderly soldiers under him are from the capital?" Cons asked a little surprised.
The staff officer nodded with envy: "Yes, the reserves of the imperial capital are all from the imperial capital, so your orderly soldiers are also from the imperial capital. This is specially taken care of by the marshal. In the future, these imperial capital people can help a lot."
Hearing this exact answer, Cons was stunned.
After being promoted to second lieutenant, Cons knew that he could have a orderly soldier, but he only thought that he would be assigned to other troops, but he never thought that his orderly soldier would be from the imperial capital.
"Remember, you have a month to arrive at the service army. Don't be late, otherwise you will be punished. Also, the guards of officers below the general level are raised by the chief officers themselves. Generally speaking, each person has one gold coin per month. If you feel nervous, you can only have one or two guards, like me, there are only twenty guards..."
After the staff officer made a clear explanation, he said goodbye to Cons when he had time to gather.
After watching the staff leave, Cons immediately looked at his military certificate and saw that it read - Lieutenant Cons Rarente, the logistics commander of the Fifth Battalion of the Fifth Regiment, the Fifth Regiment of the Fifth Regiment, the Fifth Regiment.
Seeing the beginning line of words, Cons also laughed at himself as he wanted to enter the last brigade of the Imperial Army. However, when he saw the words "Logistics Chief", he couldn't help but open his mouth in surprise.
He was actually the logistics chief of the brigade! Even if he was ordered to attack a brigade alone, Cons would not be so shocked.
Cons, who was a little stunned, found a piece of paper behind the military certificate, which read: "From the time of receiving this order, you must arrive in Sishi County, Chengqiu County, Wenbei Province, where the service corps is located, and report to Sishi County, Chengqiu County, Wenbei Province, on September 15, otherwise it will be severely punished." There was also a bright red seal next to it, which was the seal of the military command.
Wenbei Province? It seems that I have to go to the imperial capital to recruit a few orderly soldiers, otherwise I would not know how to go to Wenbei Province...
After making a decision, Cons turned around and walked towards the camp gate, where there were carriages to send soldiers into the imperial capital for free. Of course, there was a certificate of entry and exit from the imperial capital.
When he arrived at the Imperial Capital, Cons truly realized the hugeness of the city. Looking left and right, he could not see the edge at all, but looking up, he could not see the top no matter how he looked.
This city gate is thirty meters high and twenty meters wide. I wonder how much manpower it takes to open and close the heavy city gate? Outside the city gate is nearly twenty meters wide, and there is a wide and strong wooden bridge on it.
There is no suspension bridge, Cons doesn't feel any surprise.
It is very difficult to make a suspension bridge spanning a twenty-meter moat. It is better to build a fixed wooden bridge. Anyway, if there is an enemy invasion, just set the torch and burn it.
The twenty-meter-wide city gate aisle was divided into ten gates by fences, eight in and two out of the roads. The two teams of city guards at the exit looked around easily and freely, allowing those who left the city to pass through. The city guards at the entrance of the eight teams were sweating profusely checking the documents of those who entered the city.
Like Cons, who only need to check the entry and exit certificate, quickly passed the gate. The vendors driving the carriage were carefully checked. Once they found out who had not paid the tax, several civil servants rushed over with great momentum. The rebukes, defenses, and injustice immediately rang out at the national highway of the city gate, and the team was moving forward even slower.
Cons saw that many people wearing civilian clothes but carrying weapons were just checked and released, and they didn't care about carrying weapons into the imperial capital.
While thinking about what was going on, Cons walked through the passage.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man dressed in a car, said to Cons with a smile: "June, where are you going? Do you need a car? Our Xunchi car car is both cheap and fast and stable. The streets and streets of the 36th District of the Outer City of the Imperial Capital are not as familiar with us."
Hearing this, Cons discovered that there were simple single carriages lined up on the outside of the passage, with the carriage signs printed on them.
Cons, who had encountered such a thing for the first time, hesitated for a moment before saying, "Go to the reserve yamen of the imperial capital."
The middle-aged coachman glanced at Cons's rank of lieutenant and smiled and said, "Are you going to recruit personal guards? The reserve yamen is in District 8, and it takes less than an hour." Seeing Cons nodding, he hurriedly welcomed Cons into a carriage. As soon as the car drove away, the car behind hurriedly replaced the seat.
The carriage galloped on the avenue, and Cons found that the avenue was surrounded by crowded shops, restaurants, brothels and other buildings, and there was no room for houses.
Hearing Cons' inquiry, the coachman smiled and said, "The main roads of the thirty-six city gates are all golden passages of the imperial capital. Of course, these money-making shops are built on both sides, and the houses are all behind the main road."
"Just just now, I saw some ordinary people coming into the city with weapons, but the city guards didn't care at all. Why is this?" Cons asked the question just now.
"Hey, you must be a foreigner. You must know that our empire has no order to ban the weapon. The people can own any weapons. The weapon shop in the imperial capital is very prosperous." said the coachman proudly.
Hearing this, Cons couldn't help but sigh that this is a sign of the country's strength. Those in power are not afraid that the people will rebel if they own weapons.
The coachman changed his voice and said, "But I heard that except for the direct leadership of the Empire, other places have begun to prohibit people from possessing crossbow weapons for remote attacks. Some places even completely prohibit people from possessing weapons."
Cons was stunned for a moment and muttered in his heart.
Is it because the public security in other places is not good? Perhaps it is because the direct leaders of the empire have regular troops stationed.
Cons asked curiously: "The emperor's part is the inner and outer city?"
The coachman shook his head and said, "No, the imperial capital is divided into three cities. Needless to say, the inner city is the palace where His Majesty the Emperor is, while the central city is the residence of the nobles, and the outer city is where we civilians in the imperial capital and the imperial military and political yamen are located."
"The military and government yamen is in the outer city?"
Cons, who thought that everything was concentrated on the palace, asked in surprise.
The coachman smiled at Cons Zhan: "Hey, I know what you want to ask. Except for the first day of the month, the imperial meeting was held in the palace hall, the heads of each department were dealing with affairs in the outer city on other days. It is said that to avoid the incoming and out of the people coming to do business, and messing up the two cities in the middle and inner city.
"But think about it, there are so many people going to the various yamen to do business every day. If they are asked to come in and out, the nobles from the two cities in the middle and inner cities will probably not be able to stand it."
During a chat with the coachman, I learned that because of the special nature of being in the capital, the people of the imperial capital did not enlist in force like other places, but joined the army voluntarily. At the same time, these people of the imperial capital entered the regular army as soon as they joined the army and were rarely sent to local troops to serve.
"What about the reserves? Will they not want to be the officers' personal guards?" Cons asked with a frown.
After contacting the Imperial Capital soldiers, Cons found that they were all very arrogant. Now he recruited logistics soldiers himself. Although it was ordered by the superiors, he probably could not get along with them in a friendly manner.
The coachman smiled and said, "Hey, don't worry, the reserves in the imperial capital are all forced recruitment, just like the reserves in other places. The guys in the reserves in the imperial capital are either idle liars, prodigals who have been driven out of their house, or dormant households with no permanent property. They do not have the qualifications to choose the chief official, but it is inevitable that they will be slandered. If you have a way, I suggest you better recruit official slaves."
"Official slave? Prisoner of war?" Cons asked.
"It's not a prisoner of war, but a house searched by the government. Most of the servants who committed the crime were strong guys." The coachman explained.
"Is the servants implicated? Are there many people?" Cons asked again.
"Hey, that's right, it's just implicated, so I'm going to follow the right master in this year. The number of people is not clear. There are so many people, just look at who is being confiscated. I remember that last time a powerful minister was confiscated, and tens of thousands of servants arrested from all over the country."
The coachman smiled and said, "In the words of these official slaves, their life and death are in your hands, and they don't have to pay any salary. And you don't have to worry about them resisting. Being recruited as personal guards is their best ending, because as long as they make meritorious deeds, their original crimes will be eliminated and they will become formal soldiers. It is better to heaven than to be bought by others as slaves."
Cons doesn't care about his salary or not. Now he has a logistics soldier, only five gold coins a month, and his salary is more than enough.
What Cons cares about is that if he recruits those liberals, they will definitely look down on him and disobey him lip service. The most fear is to lead the wrong way and delay the arrival of the service force will be in trouble. It is better to be an official slave, at least be obedient.
But I just don't know if I can get it?
If there is an introduction by the marshal, it shouldn't be a problem?
Cons, who was already accustomed to acting in command, subconsciously chose the official slave as his orderly soldiers.
"Hey, here."
As the carriage suddenly stopped, Cons looked at it and saw that there were many main roads deviating from the city gate. It was a spacious square, and at the end of the square was a huge building covering a vast area.
There is a plaque with the words "The Imperial Capital Reserve Yamen" hanging on the side of the building gate, and four soldiers dressed in the city guards guarding the door.
The place is a bit deserted now, with only a few carriages waiting to carry passengers in the square. Apart from that, no one was entering and leaving this building.
Because I was just talking and didn't pay attention to how this place came from. Anyway, there were carriages, so I could just take the car wherever I wanted.
As Cons got off the car, the coachman said with a smile on his face: "Hey, Chenghui two silver coins."
Cons didn't care whether the money was more or less. Anyway, he had no consciousness about money, so he took out a gold coin and handed it over. The coachman carefully looked at the appearance of the gold coin, and then found eight silver coins for Cons with a happy look.
The coachman didn't have that much money on him, and he didn't know what he was relying on, so he borrowed it from the coachman from the different car dealers in the square.
After entering the yamen, Cons found a middle-aged major with a proud look on his face and staring at people with a slanted look. This major was the chief officer who was specifically responsible for the personal guards of the lieutenant.
However, when Cons handed the major the proof of recruiting a logistics soldier with the marshal's signature, the major's face changed immediately, and he called out like a friend for many years: "Oh, Cons, you are so young and promising, you are really young and promising. What kind of personal guards do you want to recruit? What kind of job do you need? What kind of personnel do you need? Let your brother help you measure it."
When the major knew that Cons was the logistics chief of the brigade, he was obviously stunned for a moment, but he didn't know if he was considering the marshal's handwritten signature, he still said enthusiastically: "Hey, this is your marshal's chain brother, you, let me think about the personnel needed to build the logistics of the brigade.
"Well, the most basic thing is to have someone who can keep accounts and share affairs for your brothers, and then someone who can speak and serve others, and someone who can serve others, and someone who is smart and knows how to inquire about the news. Finally, two strong, somewhat stubborn and guardians will be the brothers."
Cons, who didn't understand the situation, could only nod.
The major took out a few books and flipped it out, and then said for a while: "Hey, brother, I'm really lucky. I just joined a group of official slaves, and they all have them. Brother, I'll help you choose the best one, but the accountants may be a little old, right? It's best if there is no problem. In fact, the accountants must be at a certain age to be at a steady level.
